those references look nice. but it is not clear what happens if you have a
bunch of <classpath...>'s or what there scope is.
i did discover something interesting though (see build.xml below). i was
able to remove the junit.jar from ant/lib because i had a:
classpath=".;d:/classpath/junit.jar" in the <javac...> step. and the
<junit..> step apparently "remembers" this (or something) because it
worked. but it did not "remember" the "." that was defined in the <javac>
step, because i needed to add that explicitly with <classpath> in the
<junit> step. intresting.
this (ant) looks like a big upgrade from make :)
thanks
